Text 30 Jul Butterflies, Effect

by:Chris Z.

If you could go back, and do it all again,

would you change the world, would you change the end?

Would you take back all the things you said, and start over all anew,

Say the things you wish you did, do the things you wanted to?

Strip away the fears so only truth remains,

No more nerves, no more stutters, nothing is retained.

Or would you leave it as it is, forever stuck in time.

Would you live with your decisions, and know them line by line?

Accept what you had done, and what you had let go.

Leaving the past untouched, and never letting known

What could have been, what would have been, if you change the past

In order to hold that moment, firmly in your grasp.

So many people wish it, that in hindsight they’d get it right.

They’d say the word and take the plunge, on that fateful night.

They’d say their life has changed, oh so dramatically.

But the fact of the matter remains, life’s a mystery.

So before the choice is made, before you end this verse,

answer me this question; “Is your life really that much worse?”
